A word from ourChairman
To our Stakeholders,
It is my pleasure to introduce Inclusive Offerings, IndianOil’s Sustainability Report 2010-11. This year’s report continues to demonstrate the substantial progress made in implementing IndianOil’s sustainability and growth strategy; in continuing our progress in environmental governance and performance as well as advancing our constructive engagement with the communities and customers that we serve.
The world economic environment poses several challenges to providing energy security to the energy deficient developing countries like India that are working relentlessly to uplift the living standard of its people. Given this background and coupled with our corporate vision to be the Energy of India, it is incumbent upon us to continue to meet the fuel needs of the country. We have performed well on this expectation and are determined to serve the nation in meeting our responsibilities with added vigour.
Our community of stakeholders includes not just those who buy our products, but all those individuals, groups and institutions for whom our performance is important, and whose opinions and activities are important to us in turn. Our ability to deliver growth comes from the strength and commitment of our stakeholders. It is this conviction of our stakeholders in our culture of commitment that provides us indomitable strength to achieve growth through sustainable development.
We are committed to deliver futuristic energy solutions to the nation, and to realise these aspirations, we must choose to live with a sense of global responsibility, identifying ourselves together with our local communities. Sustainable measures taken today will become tomorrow’s treasures for the lives of the community in which we live, and that will only propel our organisation to superior profitability.
Due to the intrinsic inflammable nature of petroleum products, the hydrocarbon industry has to continuously invest its efforts in developing and achieving a safe culture. This calls for the best in class technologies and best in class operating practices. Above all, the commitment of each IOCian to this culture of safe and secure operations is most important every time we enter our work centres. I tend to believe that this commitment of each IOCian, coupled with our technical expertise and robust safety culture will overcome all safety-related challenges.
Parallel to this, in 2010, we have put in place a new group - Renewable Energy & Sustainable Development (RE&SD) to fast track our ambitious plans to achieve environmental sustainability goals. The emphasis on renewable energy and sustainable development reflects the deep desire within the organisation to make real and measurable progress in improving the environment footprint for a better tomorrow.
Green auto fuels, energy efficient technologies, shifting equilibrium of market dynamics towards rural communities, etc. besides tapping alternative energy sources are some of the steps that have already been in progress in the Corporation. Inclusive Offerings: Sustainability Report 2010-11 vividly illustrates significant milestones in our journey to secure inclusive growth.
We welcome you to continue this dialogue with us by offering your comments, suggestions and questions. Please send your thoughts at [email protected]

Materiality Reporting - Key Issues Risks & Opportunities
Product pricing : Debilitating continuance of under recovery on sale of and viz. diesel, known impacts profitability of the Company.
Supply shocks - Raw material availability from overseas and indigenous sources : India continues to import more than 75% of its crude requirements. Disruption attributable to suppliers viability, Crude Oil quality, Geo-political incidents impacting crude oil availability.
Supply Shocks - Finished product availability at storage & retail points. Disruption of road, rail and pipeline transportation links due to natural calamities, and emergencies adversely affects supply & distribution of finished products.
Greening of product supply chains - Environmental obligations Achieving and demonstrating sound environmental performance by controlling the impact of our activities, products and services on the environment in the context of increasingly stringent legislation on carbon emission, water consumption, waste management and Renewable Energy Purchase Obligation(RPO) etc.
Integrated approach for resource conservation and Energy efficient activities & services : Sustained reduction in carbon emission through energy efficiency will be a key element of our business. Our services would have to be an efficient user of natural resources to remain competitive.
Technological innovation for alternate energy sources and sustainable business practices. Sustainable business practices will become one of the key performance indicators of our business.
Volatile international crude price/ Lower return of capital employed on investments/ escalated debt levels.
Forex fluctuation: Unstable capital flow is an offshoot of the current global economy and wide ranged forex fluctuations adversely impact all such transactions.
Our Initiatives
IndianOil, jointly with OMCs is constantly engaging the Government of India for timely compensation of under recoveries.
Channelize alternate overseas crude supply points through appropriate business models. Acquire versatile crude processing capabilities.
Opportunities:
To outreach global fuel centres and secure E&P assets, expeditiously.
To convert domestic E&P potential into tap off points.
Pre-monsoon and pre-winter stocking of petroleum products at designated storage points located in difficult hilly terrain areas ensures product availability in the areas which experience isolation through seasonal disruptions in transportation links. We have a Transport Emergency Management Plan to effectively handle such supply crisis situations.
From the base year 2009-10, the environmental mapping exercise i.e. carbon, waste and water footprinting of our refineries, storage points, other units has become an on-going process. The Renewable Energy & Sustainable Development group with its nodal points in each Division is providing a pivotal role in addressing the issues arising from the environmental aspects of our business so as to achieve environmental objectives and sustainable development. Our refineries have initiated action to meet ISO:14064 standards.
Energy conservation initiatives continue to deliver remarkable results. The energy Index in terms of MBN has been further reduced from 62 of last year to 59 during 2010-11 against the Industry’s index reduction from 69 of last year to 66 during 2010-11.
Water conservation and the concept of rain water harvesting is gaining considerable attention. In refineries about 81% of treated effluents were reused during 2010-11 against 77% during previous year.
124 rain water harvesting facilities installed at various units.
Waste-reduction measures are in place. Disposal of wastes is carried out as per PCB guidelines. Oily wastes are bio-remediated or sold for reprocessing to agencies approved by the State Pollution Control Boards. Spent catalysts are responsibly disposed to authorized agencies.
We have ambitious plans for setting up projects for tapping solar, wind, and nuclear energy. Our R&D activities are focussed at developing environment friendly products and services. IndianOil has initiated action for solarisation of ROs, on grid and off grid solar & wind power projects. Bio-fuels, bio-remediation of wastes are among the other major thrust areas which are delivering encouraging results.
Efforts are in place to further optimize the crude basket, minimize inventories, pursue higher value products and cost reductions.
The corporation has been using various cushioning strategies to limit the adversities of forex fluctuations.

IndianOil is India’s largest commercial Organisation. It is
highest ranked Indian company in the latest Fortune ‘Global
500’ listings, ranked at 98th position, this year. IndianOil’s
vision is driven by a group of dynamic leaders who have
made it a name to reckon with. With over 34,000 strong
work force, a Maharatna Company, IndianOil has been
helping to meet India’s energy demands and reaching
petroleum products to every part of India for over five
decades. Since inception as Indian Oil Company Limited
on 30th June 1959, we have grown exponentially and
upon merger of Indian Refineries Ltd, it was renamed
Indian Oil Corporation Limited, on 1st September 1964.
Ris ing from the status of merely a petroleum
market ing company in the year 1959, today
business interests of IndianOil has outreached global
energy points towards fulfilment of our vision to be the
Energy of India.
The increasing energy requirements together with a
slow increase in domestic crude production is leading to
higher import bill as the country’s oil imports is more than
IndianOil - the Energy of India75 percent of total oil consumption. It is estimated that
coal import which was negligible in the past is also likely to
touch around 30% of the total coal requirement in the next
few years. The competition for acquiring energy resources
is intensified globally. It is causing a serious concern as the
Indian economy will require to intermingle with an ever
expanding global fuel market. We are determined to
achieve the growth path in an environmentally responsible
manner in line with national target to cut the emissions
intensity of GDP by 20-25% by 2020 compared to the
2005 level.
Our operations spans from refining, transportation of
Crude, fuels through cross country pipelines, marketing
of petroleum products, natural gas and petrochemicals,
exploration and production of crude and gas. These
operations are carried out through our strategically
integrated Divisions–Refineries Division, Pipelines Division,
Marketing Division, Planning & Business Development and
R&D Centre. In addition, we are deriving group synergy
through merger of Chennai Petroleum Corporation Ltd.
7
(CPCL), Bongaigaon Refinery & Petrochemicals Ltd. (BRPL),
IBP Co. Limited, through our three overseas subsidiaries
– Lanka IOC Ltd. in Sri Lanka, IndianOil (Mauritius) Ltd.
in Mauritius and IOC Middle East FZE in the United Arab
Emirates and eight joint ventures with Indian and overseas
partners, we secure strategically advantageous position in
our efforts to garner accelerated growth as reflected by our
physical performance. IndianOil and its subsidiary (CPCL)
account for over 48% petroleum products market share,
34.8% national refining capacity and 71% downstream
sector pipelines capacity in India.
The IndianOil Group of companies owns and operates 10
of India’s 21 refineries with a combined refining capacity of
65.7 million metric tonnes per annum (MMTPA, i.e. 1.30
million barrels per day approx.). IndianOil’s cross-country
network of crude oil and product pipelines, spanning
10,899 km with a capacity of 75.26 MMTPA, is the largest
in the country. With a throughput of 68.5 million tonnes,
it meets the vital energy needs of the consumers in an
efficient, economical and environment-friendly manner.
It has a portfolio of powerful and most–preferred energy
brands that includes Indane LPGas, SERVO lubricants,
XtraPremium petrol, XtraMile diesel, etc. Validating the
trust of 56.8 million households, Indane has earned the
coveted status of ‘Superbrand’ along with SERVO, our
lubricant brand.
IndianOil’s ISO-9002 certified Aviation Service commands
an enviable 63% market share in aviation fuel business,
successfully servicing the demands of domestic and
international flag carriers, private airlines and the Indian
Defence Services. The Corporation also enjoys a 65%
share of the bulk consumer, industrial, agricultural and
marine sectors.
As a leading energy corporate in a rapidly growing
emerging economy, challenges & opportunities are plentiful
for the Corporation. With domestic demand projected to
grow at a higher rate over the long term, the Corporation
has laid out strategic plans to meet the future demand for
petroleum products in India. The biggest opportunity is on
the infrastructure front with an unprecedented array of
projects lined up for implementation, like new highways,
ports, airports and power projects. The automobile and
manufacturing sectors are also notching up good growth
rates. We are on the cusp of perhaps one of the biggest
opportunities of our lifetime.
Our projected investments of over ` 47,000 crore in new
and additional refining capacity, enhanced pipeline network
and marketing touch-points ensure that our nation will
always have a secure and reliable energy resource for
development. The Corporation’s 15 MMTPA Paradip
Refinery Project on the east coast is also a significant
addition to the nation’s refining infrastructure and opens up
significant export opportunities. In the recent years, while
the rapid growth in the Indian economy has increased its
appetite for petrochemicals, the per capita consumption still
continues to be way below the world average. The demand
for petrochemicals in the domestic segment in India is very
strong and slowly, we are seeing the established markets
move to specialty polymers while much of India and China
are focusing on commodity polymers.
Case Study : Innovative technical support is the key for success: IndianOil has a sprawling world-class R&D
Centre. It has pioneered several lubricants formulation,
refinery processes, improvements in pipeline
transportation and alternative fuels, and is also the
nodal agency of the Indian hydrocarbon sector
for ushering in Hydrogen fuel economy in the
country. The Centre holds 212 active patents,
with over 100 international patents. Some of the
in-house technologies and catalysts developed
by IndianOil include the INDMAX technology
(for maximising LPGas yield), Oil ivorous–S
bio-remediation technology (extended to marine
applications too), Diesel Hydro DeSulphurisation
(DHDS) catalyst, a special catalyst for Bharat
Stage-IV compliant Diesel, IndVi catalyst for improved
distillate yield and FCC throughput, and adsorbent
based deep desulphurisation process for gasoline
and diesel streams.
During the year 2010-11, we have recorded a turnover
of ` 3,28,744 crore and profit of ` 7445.48 crore. Our
refineries operated at 102% capacity with a throughput of
52.96 MMT and continued to improve their distillate yield
performance. Our pipelines network has registered an
all-time high crude throughput of 42.47 MMT during the
year . The product pipeline throughput was at 25.37 MMT.
We have notched up a higher share of about 49.5% in the
8
sale of petroleum products. Our Petrochemical group has
achieved sales at 910 TMT during the year in comparison
to 650 TMT last year. In Petrochemicals, IndianOil offers a
full slate of products including Linear Alkyl Benzene (LAB),
Purified Terephthallic Acid (PTA) and an extensive range
of polymers. IndianOil holds a significant market share of
LAB in India and exports to 19 countries. It is also one of
the largest suppliers of Mono-Ethylene Glycol (MEG) in
the domestic market clocking a sales volume of 151 TMT
during 2010-11. Execution of a state-of-the-art 120,000
tonnes per annum Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR) unit
is underway at Panipat. The SBR unit is expected to
further strengthen IndianOil’s presence in the speciality
petrochemicals sector.
Energising a greener tomorrow
IndianOil’s commitment to achieve sustainable development
and it’s vision to be the ‘Energy of India’ have motivated
and Hydrogen fuels are also under active consideration.
Our technology initiatives and business strategies provide
us a unique competitive advantage in handling the entire
hydrocarbon value chain and a diversified portfolio of
products, brands and services. Today, the guiding principle
in the race to develop and adopt the best technologies is
reduction of carbon footprint, waste generation and water
consumption in various operations.
Solar Energy
India is endowed with enormous solar energy potential
across its complete geographical span and to tap this
its initiatives into the renewable energy such as Bio-fuels,
Wind and Solar. Moreover, with the return of high crude
oil prices, the attractiveness of investment in these energy
sources has increased considerably. Besides, a conducive
policy environment, as being put in place under the
Government’s National Action Plan on Climate Change
is seen as a major catalyst in making renewable energy
investment attractive and rewarding. From the near future
onwards, renewable energy sources will provide the most
versatile solution to the energy and environmental related
issues. IndianOil is working on various ambitious projects
in alternative energy vistas such as biofuels, solar energy,
wind energy and Nuclear energy, besides Biomass, Biogas
renewable energy potential, IndianOil is progressing
steadfast. Our initiatives in garnering solar energy are as
under :
A 5 MW Solar-PV power plant in Rajasthan is expected
to commence power generation by January 2012. This is
being developed with technical assistance from BHEL.
IndianOil has large network of Retail Outlets (ROs) spread
all over India. We propose to have off-grid solar power
systems and wind-solar hybrid systems at these ROs to
meet their energy need. This will not only ensure the
9
un-interrupted power supply but also reduce the carbon
footprint of those ROs.
Our Solar Lanterns are gaining popularity in the rural
market due its superior illumination quality. About
30,500 users of our Solar lanterns find the same as
an appropriate appliance to their quest for a superior
illumination and smoke-free environs. Further efforts for
cost reduction of our solar lantern is already underway.
Solar Lantern testing facility has been created in
R&D Centre.
A number of initiatives on Solar PV lighting, Solar-LED
Street light at various Refineries, Installations, terminals and
LPG Bottling Plants and administrative offices across the
organization have been initiated to harness solar energy
and reduce the carbon footprint, as well.
Wind energy
Our first wind power unit (21 MW) is operating in Kutch,
Gujarat and since its commissioning in Jan 2009, it has
generated 8.5 crore units equivalent to a revenue of
` 39.5 crore till 31.03.2011. It is also generating about
34,000 CERs annually. Additional wind power capacity of
48.3 MW is proposed to be added during 2011-12.
Biofuels
On 12 September 2008, the Government of India
announced its ‘National Biofuel Policy’. It aims to meet
20% of India’s diesel demand with fuel derived from
plants.
IndianOil has the largest captive energy crop
assets as we have completed Jatropha plantation
in 6081 hectares of Government wasteland in the
States of Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar
Pradesh. To straddle the complete bio-fuel value chain,
IndianOil has formed a joint venture with the Chhattisgarh
Renewable Development Authority. IndianOil CREDA
Biofuels Ltd. to carry out farming, cultivating, manufacturing,
production and sale of biomass, bio-fuels and allied
products and services in Chhattisgarh. In Uttar Pradesh,
IndianOil is establishing a model value chain for the
production of bio-diesel in partnership with Ruchi Soya.
A MoU for collaborating on commercial production of
Case Study : Jatropha plantation Sites – A headway in Carbon Sinking and CSR activities. IndianOil-CREDA Biofuels Ltd. (ICBL)
at Chhattisgarh organized Health Care Camps for
villagers at Bhamu and Newra, Bilaspur district,
Chhattisgarh in association with Helpage India– a
leading NGO in the field of health care. Over 500
people in Newra and Bhamu village availed the
services. They were offered free medicines and a
routine check-up for malaria which was endemic in
the area. A series of climate awareness programmes
has been conducted in association with The Institute
of Applied Systems and Rural Development (IASRD),
Delhi, in Chhattisgarh, creating awareness on
climate change.

bio-diesel from algae has also been signed with PA
LLC. Our Jatropha Plantation drive has generated
about 3.33 lakh man days of rural employment
having a CO2 sequestration potential of 22.7 tCO2
per month. The company envisages Jatropha plantation
in 80,000 hectares in Chhattisgarh & Uttar Pradesh in
coming years.
Second Generation Bio Fuels
We have planned setting up an advanced bio-energy
research facility in collaboration with Department of
Bio technology, Government of India. Its main focus area
will be technology development and deployment of
second generation bio fuels produced from a variety
of feed stock, including waste material like ethanol
from lingo cellulosic fermentation, algae based bio-fuels.
Nuclear Energy
A JV company NPCIL-IndianOil Nuclear Energy Corp.
Ltd. with Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited
has been formed to meet our ambitious plans for putting
Nuclear Power Plants. JV is putting up Nuclear Power Plants
at Rawatbhata, Rajasthan (2X700 mw) with Pressurised
Heavy Water Based Reactor (PHWR) technology future
participation in other planned project is being examined.
Upon opening up of the sector, we have plans for
independently developing nuclear portfolio and make
IndianOil a nuclear energy major. Accordingly, developing
human capital is a thrust area.

With an overall improvement in the global business
environment in the last year, the world economy is
coming out of the recessionary mode. However, transition
from recovery to expansion seems to be a major policy
challenge, especially in the advanced economies. While
the developing economies played a dominant role in the
global growth recovery and continued to grow at high
rates, the flaring inflation rates in most of the emerging
economies, presents a potent risk to the sustenance of
the growth momentum.
The turnaround in global economic growth reflected
in a rebound in energy demand. The growth in energy
consumption was broad-based across energy types.
Emerging economies in particular contributed to the high
demand growth.
In 2010, world oil consumption was at around 88 million
barrels per day exceeding its pre-crisis peak. The supply
side registered higher production but the market remained
tight as rise in production did not fully match the rise in
consumption, resulting in drawing down of inventories.
With demand outrunning production, during the year,
crude oil prices continued their ascent. Towards the
end of 2010-11, the upward trajectory steepened as the
political turmoil in Middle East & North Africa (MENA)
region accompanied by supply outages from Libya hit the
oil market. In less than two years, oil prices are back to the
plus US$100/bbl domain and are reshaping energy policy
& business. With high oil prices, focus is once again turning
to Bio-fuels, Shale gas, Oil sands, other unconventional Oil
sources and renewables.
The Indian energy market is amongst the largest in the
world. Further, the sector is expected to grow at high
rates, way above the global average largely propelled
by the fast growth of the Indian economy, rapid rate of
urbanization and the need to supply energy to millions
of Indians trapped in energy poverty. As a key supplier
Economic Aspects- Inclusive growth & profitability
in such a market, the corporation assesses ample growth
opportunities for itself, which are further enhanced by the
increasing thrust of the policy initiatives for energy sector
development. The Corporation’s vision is to become the
‘Energy of India’, and business strategies are focused on
strengthening core business.
Rural Energy Deficit & Potential:
Within the domestic market, the Corporation looks at the
rural space as presenting unique growth opportunities. It is
our endeavor to dovetail our business initiatives with the
goal of energy inclusion in the country. The corporation’s
rural marketing model is based on low cost, no frills retail
outlets, named Kisan Seva Kendras (KSKs) for providing fuel
and non fuel services to the rural market. The renewed
thrust of the Government towards the basic energy needs
of the Below Poverty Line (BPL) families through focused
schemes such as Rajiv Gandhi Gramin LPG Vitaran Yojana
in which the Corporation is partnering, gives further
impetus to the corporation’s efforts in this area. The sale
of solar lanterns through the corporation’s retail network
and LPG distributionship supplements these efforts.
International Downstream Marketing Opportunities:
In the international petroleum product market, the Asia-
Pacific Region has emerged as the leading growth center
for petroleum demand and is expected to turn into the
largest importer of petroleum products in the near future.
In addition, the emerging markets are experiencing rapid
growth in petroleum product demand. The Corporation
aims to explore opportunities presented by these fast
growing demand centers through appropriate business
models.
Business Integration:Downward Integration in Petrochemicals:
The Corporation has made significant strides in downward
integration into petrochemicals in the recent past. The
13
ground strength of India’s manufacturing base has created
robust growth in petrochemicals demand. Supported
with our future investments plans, we have moved up
the petrochemicals value chain, garnering opportunities
presented by the growing petrochemicals demand in the
country. In addition, IndianOil also aims to expand its
petrochemicals export market.
Upward Integration into Exploration & Production:
With the object ive of enhanc ing the energy
security of the country and backward integration
of i ts bus iness , the Corporat ion has been in
pursuit of tapping E&P opportunities and through
a consortium approach entrenching its upward integration
for over a decade now. Having built up a portfolio of
blocks, within and outside the country, the Corporation
awaits a significant breakthrough.
Beyond Pe t ro l eum : Grow in g Ga s Supp l y
Opportunities: Improved gas supply in the country
and existing limited gas supply infrastructure, present
a considerable investment opportunity in developing gas
transportation infrastructure and marketing of gas. In this
context, participation in construction of pipeline networks
both cross country & city gas distribution will be a focused
area for the corporation. Prospects of LNG imports to the
country have turned positive in the last couple of years and
to seize the opportunity presented, the corporation plans
to build LNG Import Terminals.
Further, there is growing policy thrust on initiatives in the
domain of Sustainability. Through its Memorandum of
Understanding (MoU) with the Public Sector Undertakings,
the Government of India has been bringing enhanced
focus to CSR activities and Sustainable Development.
This is a welcome step and the corporation has already
incorporated targets pertaining to these areas in its MoU
with the Government. Thrust on these areas will go a long
way in establishing a long-term competitive edge to the
corporation.

Oil & Gas industry is under tremendous pressure to meet the ever rising challenges of energy deficit, population growth and economic development as well as upgrade processes and product specifications to make them environment friendly. In various parts of the world, the conflict between economic development and environment conservation is increasing. IndianOil appropriately addresses those issues by understanding the expectations of the communities in which we operate in and act in an economically, socially and environmentally responsible manner which is ascribed to our constant engagement with the stakeholders to mitigate the shared problems and challenges.
The corporation appreciates the merits and the necessity of sustainable development and is committed to sustainable business practices. Within its core business, the Corporation would continue with its focused attention on efficiency improvement, energy conservation, in supplying environment friendly fuels. Further, the corporation views it as an opportunity to create foundations of a sustainable business by integrating society & environment into our business. The Corporation intends to make its KSKs and its initiatives under RGGLVY as the nodal points of delivery of its CSR activities in rural areas with respect to its health related initiatives and reaching LPG to BPL families.
Energy Reduction - key enabler to sustainable growth
Crude oil is our major raw material and is obtained from overseas and indigenous sources.
Environmental Aspects-Integrated approach for resource conservation
During the year 2010-11, we have processed 52.962 MMT of crude and continued to improve our performance with a capacity utilization of 102%. Various energy optimisation and hydrocarbon loss minimising schemes have been implemented at IndianOil Refineries, which have resulted in fuel savings to the tune of around 93,600 MT/year valued at about at ` 240 crore. The Energy Index in terms of MBTU/BBL/NRGF of our refineries in the year 2010-11 was further reduced to 59 against the energy index of 62 in the year 2009-10.

Rain Water Harvesting
During the year, Rain water harvesting facilities were put up
in 74 Marketing installations & is in progress at another 27
installations. The ground water level is measured through
piezometer installed at five locations of R&D Centre, on
a quarterly basis. 16 Rain water harvesting projects have
been completed in Refinery Units and implementation
at 23 locations is in progress. There are 23 locations in
Pipelines installations where rain water harvesting is carried
out. Rain water harvesting facilities have been installed at
R&D centre and IiPM.
Emission & Waste control – Key indicators to our sustainable achievements
During the production process in the refineries there are
emissions of several pollutant gases from the stacks like
sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. Utmost attention
is given to control / reduce emissions in our refineries.
The major sources of gaseous emissions are flue gases
from boilers and heaters, FCC regenerators and Sulphur
Recovery Units. Hydrocarbon leaks and evaporation
during storage, handling and transportation of petroleum
products and crude oil are also potential sources of
emissions to air.
and spent catalyst are the main hazardous solid wastes
generated in the Refinery units. Oily Sludge is generated
from Crude and Product Tanks at Pipelines and Marketing
Installations. Our refineries follow a mix of strategies for
management of oily sludge, which include minimization
of generation at source, advanced in-situ tank cleaning
methods, bioremediation using advanced microbial
treatment and disposal in secured landfill sites.
The Biological Sludge generated in the Activated Sludge
Treatment Plant of ETPs of Refinery Units is disposed off
in green belts as manure. The FCC spent catalyst is sold
to cement industry for use as a filler material and is also
used for road construction as a filler. The spent catalyst
of CRU and HGU is sent back to the supplier. During
the year 2010-11, around 3,890 MT of spent catalyst was
generated in Refineries, out of which 100 MT was reused
and 1,110 MT was safely disposed off through sale to
CPCB approved parties and balance quantity is secured for
further disposal During the year 2010-11, around 11,500
MT of oily sludge was generated in Refineries and Pipelines
installations, out of which 3,990 MT was reused and 8,450
MT was safely disposed off. The oil sludge generated by
our Terminals /Depots are treated as per PCB norms and
bio-remediated.
Oil Spill Response facilities
Oil Spill Response facilities are provided at Port
Locations and the Tier-I facilities are being maintained
by respective Port Trusts. The capital cost is being
shared by the port users. The services of East Asia
Response Limited, Singapore are being used for
Tier-II (1000 tonnes) and Tier-III (beyond 1000 tonnes)
level Oil Spill Management. The Indian Coast Guard is the
nodal agency and the operator liaises with Indian Coast
Guard for Oil Spill Management (Tier-II and Tier-III). Oil

mutual aid partners in Apr’10, Nov’10 and Mar’11.
Development of Green Belts and Eco Parks
Tree plantation in and around our all establishments is an
ongoing activity. Development of green belts / ecological
parks has been a significant feature of IndianOil’s operations.
All refineries have developed green cover around their
operations. Guidance from eminent Botanists has been
Our units and installations apply the principles of ‘prevent,
reduce, reuse and recover’. The Oily sludge generated

taken in scientifically planning and development of green
belts in and around our refineries. During 2010-11, around
61,500 trees have been planted in our Refineries and
around 37,100 trees have been planted at our Marketing
& Pipeline Installations and R&D centre.
The sustenance of large species of trees and birds with
natural breeding activity in the eco-parks demonstrates
the prevalence of eco-friendly environment in and around
our refineries.
Safety & Health
We believe the safety of our employees and assets is
a never ending process. Following the unfortunate fire
incident at our Jaipur Oil Terminal on 29th October
2009, the safety preparedness of oil and gas installations
was revisited by expert committees. Implementation of
committees recommendations are being monitored by
a high level committee. 52% of the recommendations
have been implemented at our installations during the
year. Consequent to the Jaipur fire, a major administrative
change has been effected by putting in place a direct
monitoring system viz. Head of Corporate Health Safety &
among all units, we have conducted a series of training
programmes on Standard Operating Procedures and
several other workshops on safety . A workshop on “Fire
Hazard Management of Storage Tanks and Associated
Facilities” by faculty of international repute from
M/s Resource Protection International, UK was conducted
at IIPM, Gurgaon which was attended by officers from the
oil industry and Oil Industry Safety Directorate.
IndianOil believes that the man behind the machine is
very important and considers their health as an asset
to the Corporation. All the refineries of IndianOil have
been certified by the DNV under OHSAS: 18001
{“Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series”}.
The healthcare personnel regularly interact with managers
and staff in the shop floor on health and safety.
Environment department now directly reports to Chairman
of the Company and the respective HODs of Health
Safety & Environment of Marketing Division and Pipelines

Water Conservation
The treated effluent water is reused / recycled for various
purposes in refineries like fire water & cooling tower make
up, coke cutting in Delayed Cokers, as DM Water in boilers
and process plants and also for captive irrigation in our
green belts & Eco parks and make up to Eco-ponds. This
has helped in reducing discharge of treated effluent outside
and also reduction in fresh water consumption. About 81%
of the treated effluent was reused in all refineries during
the year against 77% in the previous year.

Case Study: Cloudburst in Leh - IndianOil Response
On 6th August 2010, a cloudburst in Leh triggered
massive destruction, caused by over 250 cm rainfall
in an hour. Unprecedented floods and mudslides
swept away houses and all else that came in their
way and claimed hundreds of lives. Buildings were
razed, communication lines snapped and highways
leading to Srinagar and Manali washed away. Much
of the damage was caused because people built
houses using mud bricks which keep the interior
warm even in sub-zero temperatures. The once
picturesque landscape had turned into a disaster
zone, with tossed up vehicles lying scattered and
mounds of silt and slush burying houses.
IndianOil responded to this natural calamity
and extended relief to the victims by providing
50 pre-fabricated houses at a cost of `187.50 lakh.

to fight against the engagement of child labour. We ensure
that no child labour is employed or permitted to work in
any of our establishments. The minimum prescribed age
for seeking employment in IndianOil is 18 years and we
have very effective mechanisms to eliminate child labour in
the jobs done. As per a special clause in the general terms
and conditions of all our tenders, the bidders are required
to submit a written declaration that they do not engage
child labour. The clause further delineates that if any entity
is found to have engaged child labour, the contract will
be terminated forthwith. Our security staff and Access
Control System at all locations provides support in effective
implementation of child labour elimination initiatives.

Competition Issues & Precautionary Approach
Uninterrupted and adequate supply of petroleum
products and natural gas across the country is ensured
by the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board
through its various regulations. The Board also enforces
the provisions of retail service obligations for the retail
outlets and marketing service obligations for the players
in the downstream oil and gas sector. Accordingly, our
all operations fall under the jurisdiction of the Regulatory
Board/Ministry of Petroleum.
The significant precautionary approach/initiatives taken by
IndianOil are - minimise debilitating continuance of under-
recoveries on sale of products, Optimise crude basket for
improvement of return from capital employed, thrust on
standard operating procedures to ensure safety of lives and
property, innovative HR policies, aggressive participation in
rural market, thrust on CSR for inclusive growth and thrust
to develop renewable energy assets.
